Another WIP. This one is a planter, that drains out the penis. I am a bit nervous this will crack in its first firing. Also pictured is another torso that came out of the kiln today

Also the air filters.

It did contribute to an idea for a variation 🤣

I still need to make sure I can correctly glaze these but I could certainly do this.

Some day hopefully soon!

This is some of what I have been working on. I still need to glaze these but have to wait on a few tests. All hand made bisque pottery. This is only the beginning

A smiling selfie reflecting my hair cut

Finally decided to cut my hair, and smile with teeth for once.

I have two just like her! Except I am not a warm stationary object, the husband is.

Yep. It’s agony

We aren't sure of our fate next month...

The amount of invalid transfers to my dept have increased so much they had to send out a comm to not do it. Problem is, the AI is giving out our number for everything and why not just restrict the AI? Also the training to spot hallucinations? 🙃

Bought an airbrush for under glazing better details on my sculpted works and there was a slight learning curve but I think I will be just fine.

A coworker discouraged someone from using Korean skin care and then came in the next day bitching about dry skin and how horrible her make up looks.

I wish I could afford it, but I need to take a LOA.

Sadly, people only care when it has a direct impact on them. Environmental crises are a slow burn.

We have two of these for our girls. One of our boys will stalk one as she eats (she's a grazer) and dive in and shove his face in to keep it from closing. Our dog will do the same to another but she's a vacuum. My husband gets constant alerts when it won't close and you can monitor feeding via app

A selfie to show off my hair

I maybe overstimulated but at least my hair is looking good

Completely overstimulated within 15 minutes of starting work. 🙃

A new favorite game of mine is guess my age. The open mouth stares when people find out are priceless.

Call centers are literal hell to work in even with mild sensory issues.

I just want to make clay sculptures of naked men is that too much to ask?

Days like this make me question my medication’s efficacy. Most days, it’s just fine, but too much chaos and less than zero desire to do this makes for a rough day.

Having coworkers with the capability of thinking for themselves is such a fever dream.

Another version, with a longer neck for drinking from. I’m trying for various body shapes and sizes but I want everything to serve some form of function.

A peek at what I am working on. I’ve been making torso shaped vessels. Everything is made by hand and with no visual reference. This was put in the queue for firing, I have two shorter ones that should come out of the kiln Tuesday. The one in the background was finished up tonight.

why be limited to one? 😉

Been way too excited for my current ceramics projects. Been embracing my sculptural abilities more and making a subject matter I have always wanted to do but been too insecure to do. Can’t wait to get the first tests out of the bisque and hope they survive

Probably edit the background out for something Lisa Frank esque.

I don't think this picture is gay enough.
